Drive By Downloads - How Bing Helps Prevent Them

He and the Bing team do some fascinating work to prevent “drive-by downloads” of malware and other nefarious software.

I did of course ask Christian how we eradicate drive-by downloads from the planet. He was a good sport and had a very good answer to that question.
